피에조콘관입시험(PCPT)의 소산시험은 in-situ 상태의 압밀계수(c/sub v/)를 추정하는 방법으로 널리 이용되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 spherical cavity expansion theory 및 axisymmetric uncoupled linear consolidation equation(Gupta & Davidson, 1986)을 이용하여 과압밀점토에서의 초기과잉간극수압의 분포 및 과잉간극수압의 시간에 대한 소산현상을 해석하는 수치해석방법을 제안하여 현장시험결과 및 실내시험결과와 비교 분석하였다. ADIS (alternating direction implicit scheme)를 이용한 FDM 해석을 실시한 결과와 현장시험의 소산곡선은 잘 부합되는 것으로 나타났으며 압밀계수도 실내실험 또는 피에조콘관입 시험에 대한 추정방법으로 산출된 값과 비교적 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

A governing equation of uncoupled three dimensional finite strain theory of consolidation is presented. This equation is suitable for relatively thick layers, possessing large strain, non-linear material property, and variable permeability. A special numerical solution procedure has to be adopted for the finite difference scheme because the solution is not stable in using Forward-Time Centered-Space (FTCS) method and the governing equation is highly non-linear. The solution is capable of predicting settlement with respect to time. The results predicted by the developed method of analysis have been compared with those of experimental tests on different types of highly compressible soils with vertical wick drain. The uncoupled three dimensional finite strain theory of consolidation appears to predict settlement behavior well. A detailed comparison shows good agreement in terms of total settlement, and reasonable agreement with respect to time.
